I respect Klitschko's longevity in the sport and his accomplishments. But he is boring. Ever since Lennox Lewis, Tyson and Holyfield retired. (Not talking about the Holyfield who kept fighting when he should've hung it up) And the Klitschko's took over, the Heavyweight division sank. Here in the U.S. it hasn't been a division the fans payed attention too because it became boring. Now with guys like Joshua, Wilder, Parker, etc, etc.....the renaissance seems to have begun. We need the Heavyweight division back. So with that being said, I am hoping that Joshua can knock Klitschko off so he can retire. And the Heavyweight division can continue it's rise back to being popular once again.
Oh, check out the program The Gloves are Off Joshua vs Klitschko, I just saw it today. Good stuff. Joshua was talking very cerebral. He's going in this fight being smart tactfully but at the same time he let Klitschko know he's going for the knockout. For the good of the Heavyweights I'm rooting for AJ to knock Klitschko off.
At 41, not much of a future Klitschko is looking at. So I'm rooting for the young blood and the new blood of the Heavyweights today, bring the Heavyweights back. Boxing needs the Heavyweight division back. It's a historic division, the Glamour division and we need these young guys to bring it back to prominence.
